Hello everybody,
Hi, I am noob around this forums, I just shoot some questions in newsgroups long ago and never look for info again since I have been able to keep in range myself for long time with some bumps from time to time but 95% of the time under approval from my MD.
Thing is I landed here because I was looking on Google for “tingling tongue” and there was something that call my attention, one post that now I can’t seem to find, (don’t ask me how but I am Dumb and I close the window before I check the entire post)
Since last year I have this tingling tongue when I am late for meal which we know is not good for a diabetic, and it last for after couple of hours after meal.
Doc told me is normal in diabetics due some relation with Peripheral neuropathy which could be a non scary event in my development at least in my tongue.
However I have found that is not so common even among diabetics who don’t suffer neuropathy in other areas like foots or hands (which I don’t have); the main thing that calls my attention and makes me subscribe to these forums at light speed was the post that I found was from a guy reporting “tingling tongue” and suffering with a pinched nerve in the neck.
I suffered a pinched nerve last year while exercising and the pain last for almost 3 months, after that was just discomfort, numb fingers and some rigidness in the neck, now I am 90% ok with my neck but after the problem with my neck the tingling tongue start to show, I never have the “tingling tongue” effect before this.
When my pinch nerve happen I was under care from my primary physician and he gave me a few steroid shots and he referred me to a chiropractor for therapy and I have been under chiropractic care once a week for a year now.
Even when I am mostly recovered of my neck as I said there are some remains as result, mostly related with my left side, like the nerve coming from my back to my chest tend to make this “cracking” sound if I spend too much time in one position, like watching TV lying on the couch, or from time to time some numbness on my Middle, Ring and Baby Fingers.
I am now way too curious to understand if the problem with my tongue could be related same to my diabetes as to my pinched nerve, who knows maybe the real experts here (the patients are the real experts as my doctor said) have experienced something similar.
Sorry for the long post,
Good readings for all of you.
